Review. A light source emitting radiation at frequency

Chapter 40, Problem 73

(choose chapter or problem)

Review. A light source emitting radiation at frequency 7.00 3 1014 Hz is incapable of ejecting photoelectrons from a certain metal. In an attempt to use this source to eject photoelectrons from the metal, the source is given a velocity toward the metal. (a) Explain how this procedure can produce photoelectrons. (b) When the speed of the light source is equal to 0.280c, photoelectrons just begin to be ejected from the metal. What is the work function of the metal? (c) When the speed of the light source is increased to 0.900c, determine the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.
